First they bosted tape production, and I didn't say anything because I wasn't tape production.

given that there's nothing there to understand.

The simplest explanation is that it's designed to hand out large sums of money to criminals and black ops groups.

Not least because he's posted it dozens of times before.

It's funny to see political ads by people running against data centers in this election cycle.

A small percentage of a few billion people is a big problem.

Yes, regardless of whether their name is Muhammed or Breivik.

Why not here? Because for starters, humanism isn't a religion (and I say that as a humanist). It's a philosophical stance within atheism. And atheism is the absence of religion** (it's literally right there in the name), not a religion. You can't claim "religious" exemptions as an atheist. What this person actually wants is a philosophical exemption, akin to, say, a vegetarian wanting an exemption from having to cook meat at a restaurant or whatnot.

** - Well, except for those atheists who worship Athe.

Yeah, nothing insular about the Amish.

(Oh wait...)

Slop has a definition and what youâ(TM)re describing isnâ(TM)t it. Slop is low effort low quality content made in volume.

As much as I disagree, every one of those choices was done deliberately. 256GB is fine for the average consumer who uses the computer mainly for web browsing and light office work. You and I are not the target demographic. You can delete the stocks app etc.

Headline from 1845.

I’ve driven a few GM rentals in recent years, and I’d almost certainly never buy one of their cars. Not just because of the design, but they are digging in on blocking CarPlay on their cars so they can sell subscriptions, and they ratted out their own customers to insurance companies.

If they changed course now, it will still be a long time before I trust them again.

What a dumb article. Quality goes up and down every year, but Apple is not making "slop." That's just a clickbait headline.

Apple sells luxury products. Who cares if the polishing cloth is $19? Wait till you see how much Porsche charges.

Agreed. If you don't know what you're doing it's hard to even ask for the right thing or know what's possible. For example: I'm currently developing a system that uses a local AI to help debug internal issues. The initial incarnations of it were very slow to start up each command; clearly, it wasn't doing proper KV caching and was having to prefill every turn; it required patches on the llama.cpp fork and our API wrapper, and also adjusting the system prompt to keep variable content at the end. But if you have no idea about KV caching issues, how do you even know something is wrong with the backend, let alone what to tell the AI to fix? You'll end up deciding you need to upgrade the GPU instead.

(That said: "lovingly handcrafted" code is a hilarious phrase that should give any developer who's ever worked on a big corporate software project the giggles, and also, these software devs are clearly people angry at knowing they're going to be let go looking for revenge by badmouthing their boss to the press)

Escape from Pluto is much easier, and the Pluto-Charon distance is 1/20th of the Earth-Moon distance.

I missed the part that said it involved leftists, fats, or lesbians.
